@Miyhnea Under Cold War definitions, Syria would not have gotten away with calling itself free market or liberal

@Miyhnea With capitalism victorious, every new experiment is now simply defined as some sort of variant of capitalism.
Take Syria, they talk free market liberalism, but basically 100% of all new projects have been state-led or 5050 investor+government, with some BOT sprinkled in

Thinking a bit how economic radicalism has kinda died in the world. Nobody does socialist utopism anymore
If you organize a successful mass popular revolution today you'll most likely go to Davos to be crowned by Tony Blair like something out of the most insane conspiracies

@andymikhailovic Honestly, it's a bad example, not just because of my point, but because you may be unaware but zios hate Armenians almost as much as they hate Palestinians, so they'd unironically respond, "yes they foreigners take their homes and give them to us."
English
@SyrianLib I am not doing that. I am only using an example to show the ridiculousness of his argument when he speaks of “European Jews” when Armenians have also lived in Europe for millennia and migrated back and forth.
English
Armenian from Lviv, Odesa or Crimea moves to Jerusalem in the 19th or 20th century is indigenous but Jews doing the same isn’t? Be serious.
History Speaks@History__Speaks
I would consider Armenians indigenous to Palestine, even as they descend from the south caucasus, because of their long unbroken presence there. European Jews are clearly not. Completely different culture, etc.

@Dmg_Cntrl Very similar to how Armenia and Kazakhstan are primary suppliers of important imports to Russia.
English
@Dmg_Cntrl Greece is a middleman economy, their role is probably more logistics as opposed to those Israeli importing being Greek products.
English
If Israel was reliant on us, then they would be truly doomed.
Visioner@visionergeo
🇮🇷🇦🇿🇬🇷🇮🇱 Iranian intelligence sources told Fars News Agency that Azerbaijan and Greece have become key suppliers of essential goods to Israel, describing the country’s lifeline as increasingly dependent on them. See the latest updates with us: @visionergeo

@Miyhnea @dyingtriycle You can't demand it back, the legitimacy of any Syrian goverment will melt to earth core if they gave it up, and any instability or economic downturn will probably see it being evoked again as a rallying cry.
English
We talk of the IDF dominance but a key to it few mention is that there is nobody left on earth, even they were politically willing, to rebuild the lost armies and equipment in a short timeframe of a few years
Mihnea/𒈪𒄴𒉈𒀀@Miyhnea
@ThomasPierret @TitusMichaeleus A time being is measured in decades at best. You need a proper real army, the state in Syria just ended conscription. Equipment that costs money you don't have in an int environment were nobody can give you the mass quantities in short periods that USSR had to rebuild the SAA
English
Actual army? Not PMF?
... What?
What the actual fuck is the US trying to do here?
Clash Report@clashreport
7 Iraqi Army soldiers were killed and 13 wounded after a U.S. airstrike hit the clinic and engineering department at the Habbaniyah base in Anbar. The base, which is shared by the Iraqi Army and PMF/Hashd al-Shaabi, was struck in two consecutive U.S. attacks on March 24–25. Baghdad called the strikes a serious violation of Iraqi sovereignty, especially because a military medical facility was hit, and has begun diplomatic and security consultations.

@Miyhnea @dyingtriycle Syria can't win, but they can basically play loud noises while Israel is trying to sleep indefinitely
English
@Miyhnea Maybe I get the impression that Israel wants Turkey to take over as their object of obsession after Iran is gone. They're unhinged lunatics. There is probably a camp in Israel which would lobby for taking the fight to Turkey rather than trying to fight in a proxy way in Syria.
English
@SyrianLib There is no need for hostilities inside Turkey if Turkey can be deterred in Syria though
English
@Miyhnea In fact, we already have this reality tested, Turkey DID try to set up a base in Syria and even got the US to agree under the pretext of it being an anti-ISIS post, just for Israel to say "lol know" and bombed to dust to prevent the Turks from moving in!
English
@dyingtriycle @Miyhnea No, they'd have 2 million Syrians to go through, but areas such as Golan and Hermon are probably gonna be a multi generational fight to take back.
English
@SyrianLib @Miyhnea Is there now a real possibility of southern Syria and Lebanon getting annexed by Israel?
English
@Miyhnea In case of an Israeli attack on Turkey? No, I don't think so, we're not talking about Turks dying in Syria, I mean proper Israeli hostility against Turkey directly
English
@SyrianLib i think thats a very big misjudgement of Turkish society and politics frankly.
English
@Miyhnea And other tactics such as intelegence shielding/sharing and simply doing things on behalf of Syria instead of risk giving them the capablities outright
English
@Miyhnea Turkey would see dying in Syria (correctly) as dying for Syria, as opposed to an attack on Turkey, hence why they'd never really risk such an adventure. They're probably not above doing things under the table tho, we'll probably see a lot of training of Syrians inside Turkey
